APC Thieves Only Come To Steal And Kill – Gov Fayose

*Fayose

Ekiti State Governor, Mr.
Ayodele Fayose, has raised the alarm that Nigeria
under President Buhari was fast becoming a shame, describing the failed attempt
by the All Progressives Congress (APC) to manipulate the BayelsaState
governorship election as clear invitation to anarchy. The governor, who said it
was shameful that the two elections conducted by INEC under Buhari’s kinsman,
Prof Mahmood Yakubu were inconclusive, called on all well-meaning Nigerians and
the international community to rise up in condemnation of the APC government’s
plot to destroy democracy in the country.

Speaking through his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, Governor Fayose who said everything under Buhari was becoming inconclusive, added that; “If in three days, INEC could not conduct credible election in BayelsaState of just eight local governments, one wonders what will happen during the general elections in 2019.

The
simple reality is that INEC under this Buhari’s kinsman, Prof Yakubu, who is
fast becoming the classical example of incompetence cannot guarantee free and
fair elections in this country.” He saluted the courage of the people of
Bayelsa State, describing them as “worthy heroes of democracy that stood their
ground against agents of darkness that were prepared to short-change them by
imposing a governor they do not want on them.”

Governor
Fayose also congratulated the Bayelsa State Governor and the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) candidate, Seriake Dickson, for having the people of Bayelsa behind
him, adding that “the people of Bayelsa have shown that their power is more
than that of the Abuja
political oppressors.”

He urged
the governor and Bayelsa people not to lose their guard, saying; “Now that they
have failed in their bid to use one local government to rig themselves to
power, they will surely go back to their evil drawing board to plan fresh
assaults.

“Therefore,
Bayelsa people must henceforth sleep with their two eyes opened because the APC
thieves come not only to steal, but to kill and that can be seen in the way and
manner they murdered over 20 people just because they wanted power at all cost.”

While
warning on the consequences of destruction of the legacy of free, fair and
credible electoral process bequeathed on Nigeria
by Dr Goodluck Jonathan, Governor Fayose said; “Nigerians, especially we in EkitiState
are already taking a cue from the Kogi and Bayelsa States experience and are
getting prepared for future elections.”
